Troy Lee Gentry, of the country singing duo Montgomery Gentry, has been accused of killing a tame black bear that federal officials say he tagged as killed in the wild.Gentry, 39, of Franklin, Tenn., and Lee Marvin Greenly, 46, of Sandstone, appeared Tuesday before U.S. Magistrate Judge Raymond Erickson in connection with a sealed indictment returned by a federal grand jury in Minneapolis.Authorities allege that Gentry purchased the bear from Greenly, a wildlife photographer and hunting guide, then killed it with a bow and arrow in an enclosed pen on Greenly’s property in October 2004.The government alleges that Gentry and Greenly tagged the bear with a Minnesota hunting license and registered the animal with the state Department of Natural Resources as a wild kill.Gentry allegedly paid about $4,650 for the bear, named Cubby. The bear’s death was videotaped, and the tape later edited so Gentry appeared to shoot the animal in a "fair chase" hunting situation, the government alleges.If convicted, both Gentry and Greenly face a maximum penalty of five years in federal prison and a $20,000 fine.Greenly refused to comment Tuesday. A spokesman for Gentry said he couldn’t comment.

Steven Huvane vs NBC’s Today |

THERE’S going to be a shortage of A-list celebrities on the "Today" show if Jennifer Aniston’s high-powered flack gets his way.Word is that Stephen Huvane is furious because the NBC morning chatfest trumpeted Us Weekly’s "scoop" about Aniston and Vince Vaughn’s supposed engagement, and then had Ann Curry breathlessly pump editrix Janice Min for details. So Huvane is said to be yanking his roster of top stars from future "Today" appearances.Sources say Huvane called "Today" executives and read them the riot act for not having checked with him before reporting that Vaughn proposed to Aniston on a private plane after a romantic weekend in Mexico. Huvane has branded the story a complete fabrication. He’s said to have told the "Today" suits he’s pulling his hottest clients – including Aniston, Gwyneth Paltrow, Demi Moore and Kirsten Dunst – from the show indefinitely.It’s also expected Huvane will hand his clients over to dreaded ABC competitor "Good Morning America." His entire firm, powerful PMKHBH, may follow suit, which would mean a serious scarcity of stars on "Today.""The timing couldn’t be worse," an insider says. "September is when the ratings war traditionally heats up, and Huvane’s clients have some big movies coming out.""GMA" producers are said to be giggling with glee. One staffer even called Huvane to make sure he saw the Curry-Min chitchat. "Today" spokeswoman Lauren Kapp says she wasn’t aware of any plans to withhold talent, but, "There’s no way. [Huvane] cannot afford to put his clients on a competitor that gets considerably less viewers.""GMA" rep Bridgette Maney bristles: "We’ve launched more than half of this year’s top-10 albums and movies, and ‘GMA’ continues to be the place where the biggest celebrities visit."
Page Six
What a schmuck he is! He can pull the talent all he wants from the show, but they can do as much negative press right back at his clients. They can say that Jennifer Aniston’s new film is bad, which will probally not be a lie. Same with Gwenyth and who thinks Kirsten Dunst’s Marie Antoinette is going to be good? And if she is going for the Oscar she needs all the positive press as possible. Plus PMK/HBH lost of a lot A-List clients (like Tom Cruise) in the last few years because of publicists departures, so yes they have some names, but not as many as they used to have. This should get interesting if Page Six is right?

Police officers were today "assessing" a claim by TV cleaning diva Kim Woodburn that she buried her stillborn baby in a park.Kim, now star of Channel 4’s How Clean Is Your House?, made the revelation in her autobiography, which is being serialised in the Mail on Sunday.A spokeswoman for Merseyside Police said: "We are assessing the article in the Mail on Sunday and will decide what action is necessary in due course."She added that no formal investigation had been launched.Kim says she gave birth to the baby boy in February 1966 in her flat in Liverpool when she was only five months pregnant.She had recently split up with the child’s father.The following day, Kim says, she went to a nearby park and dug a hole with a spoon and buried the baby wrapped in a tea towel.She writes in Unbeaten: "I put the baby on the ground and then knelt down and started digging with the spoon. As I gouged the earth, tears streamed down my face. I brushed them away with my dirty hands."When I felt I had dug down deep enough, I lowered my precious little boy in to the hole and wrapped the towel around him before slowly replacing the earth."When the job was done, I still couldn’t leave." After the death of her baby she changed her name from Pat to the first name of her favourite actress Kim Novak, and moved house. She became a beautician and model, and is now married to Peter, a retired policeman. They have no children.

Although what she went through is horrible, what she did is worst.

Publicist Stephen Huvane with Jennifer Aniston on March 27; Aniston and Brad Pitt with Sting
Jennifer Aniston’s publicist, Stephen Huvane, is denying our cover story that Vince Vaughn popped the question on June 27. But, then again, he’s told some whoppers over the years. Let’s revisit them, shall we? 1) BRAD AND JEN ARE NOT ENGAGED After Jen and then-boyfriend Brad Pitt took the stage during a Sting concert in November 1999 and Jen flashed a big diamond ring on her left ring finger, Huvane told the media: “She has a ring, but it’s not an engagement ring.” He continued to deny any engagement until the couple married July 29, 2000. 2) BRAD AND JEN ARE OK Two weeks before Brad and Jen announced their separation on January 7, 2005, Huvane told Us: “They are looking forward to spending the holidays with each other. There is no split. They are fine.” 3) JEN ISN’T MOVING TO HER FORMER BACHELORETTE PAD In February 2005, Huvane denied reports that Aniston was planning to move back into her former Hollywood Hills home, telling the New York Daily News, “Jennifer is not planning to move back into her home that is leased out to Ali G [Sacha Baron Cohen]. That is another fabrication.” Cohen and his fiancée, Isla Fisher, were ousted from the place that same month, Aniston moved back into her old pad later that year, and Vaughn joined her in January 2006. 4) JEN AND VINCE ARE NOT DATING When pictures of Vince and Jen cuddling on the set of The Break-Up surfaced in July 2005, and rumors circulated that the costars were dating offscreen, Huvane denied the coupling to the New York Post: “There is no romantic interest. Vince is a good friend of Jennifer’s. I think the tabloids are so eager to see her with someone romantically that they just make these false assumptions.” And, hey, for good measure… 5) GWYNETH IS NOT DEPRESSED In 2003, rumors surfaced that Gwyneth Paltrow’s depression over her father’s death caused the actress to drop out of the films I Heart Huckabees and Happy Endings. Huvane, who is also Gwyneth’s publicist, denied the reports, saying, “She’s not going through a serious depression, she just needs some time off.” “I was so depressed about my father,” the actress later said of the time in her life.
Us Weekly
I can tell you Us Weekly is so right. His way of confirming most rumors is not to respond. He only responds if it so big and he has no other choice. He is also the worst crisis management publicist in Hollywood. How can I say that? Well he was (not sure if he still is) Janet Jackson’s publicist during Nipplegate and we know how that turned out. He also let’s clients skip out on junket interviews, maybe Jennifer Aniston would’ve had a few more number ones if she did a few more interviews. Press does helps a movie, but if your publicist doesn’t let you do press oh well. So you might be asking why does he have such great clients? My theory research his brother Kevin Huvane?
